Blue mk1 75 abandoned?
 

Just off the forth road bridge northbound. Parked up with stickers on window but didn't see the stickers properly. May of been put on by police? Stolen? Looks nice, shame.

There's a black 190 on a 51 plate sitting in a bus bay on the A90 towards Dundee near Longforgan. Been there a few days now.......

Probably "Police Aware" stickers, saves everybody driving past phoning about it. Need to have been there a couple of days for them to do that though. Doubtful stolen, wouldn't have been left there if it was, more likely a breakdown.

Apparently it's been there for a couple of weeks or thereabouts. Shame.

I mentioned about this a few days ago

one at longforgan is away, but saw the one at the north of the forth road bridge today. Guys at my work keep asking if its me, or if I need it for parts, And they drive peugeot's ???????

I could do with a few parts myself!

Ravinder ,try u pull it at inverkeithing. Got my battery cover, and a few bits and bobs there . You just take it off the cars they have there.
And the chap at the desk thinks up a price, never dear. Replacement driver window £7.:}

Still there tonight...


Untaxed since march

Wonder what happened. Is anyone a able to take ownership of the vehicle? Hope it does t get destroyed. Looks pretty clean.

Is that an abandoned BMW too? :getmecoat:

Yes, I've been to that scrappy before. Been a good year or so since I last visited. I was planning to make a visit quite soon and have a walk about and see what I could find.

Welsh number plate,maybe someone gone up there for the rugby forgot where he parked it and walked home.:D

Long walk!

Does anyone know if the 75 is still there? The reason I ask is because I saw a recovery truck go past my work in Dunfermline with a 75 on the back of it. I wonder if it's the same one :eek:

If it's not moved by the owner within 7 days of that notice being attached to the car the council will contact a local scrappy to uplift it...... Seems way to good for that.

I might drive across the bridge to see if it's there. If it has gone to a scrappy, is there a way of finding out which one its gone to?

Let your fingers do the walking
 

Phone all scrappies both sides of bridge perhaps :cool:

Was there 20 mins ago

I thaught the days of leaving cars at the side of the road died out in the late 90's/early 2000's with metal prices. Can't see why anyone would do it whichever cos even if a car has had it a scrappy will pay something for it or take it free. I guess they will only be left at the roadside if the metal prices are so low the scrappy wishes to charge to remove a car. Owner also would be liable for back tax & removal costs I would assume so a bit daft IMO.

Shame too as it looks a good car. Agree with what is said phone scrap yards but being as it is to be removed by the council it may have an immediate destruction order on it!

I must of seen a different one then. Always a shame to see one being recovered. :mad:

Not far after 3/4 days of stella and your whiskey chasers.:D

if its a 1.8 the head gasket has given up again! If its a kv6 its one of Colin NI `s cars (or mine) and if a diesel its in tank pump has failed.:p:
Or its stolen and he is walking down the road looking for Taggart!:D

Noooooo. V6 is bullet proof! What would I know? I'm a diesel owner! :shrug::D

Diesel untaxed since 5th March according to DVLA https://www.vehicleenquiry.service.gov.uk/

Oh and my mate fixes up scrap cars, since the US flooded market with metal the scrap price has dropped from 220 last July to 35 this July. So a scrapper has to dismantle and sell spares to make any money due to getting rid of fluids etc. I doubt he was pulling my leg he was offering me cars for as little as 50 quid just to get rid and he knows I know the same salvage guys.

Still There
 

Was still there Monday 13th July in the afternoon

Shame. :(.

Went across the bridge today. It's no longer there :(

Well you would wait, get on the phone to your local scrap yards this morning and get in first seeing as you have been watching it for a while now

SCB have a few 75's in, need to pop in at the weekend and get a couple of bits.

Silver abandoned 75
 

It is now in u pull it in inverkeithing for anyone wanting spares, as I was there today for odds and ends for my mgf that I'm now selling, detachable tow bar and didn't look a bad car and is a shame it's ended up there, big bag of sand in boot tho and a pack of brand new medium boxers if anyone needs new ones :}

Oh, what a shame. Looked like a good one too :(

Scrap 75
 

They have a few nice 75 saloons for the picking as I got side air bag sensors for mine but got the wrong ones and only realised after I removed my seats today oops, another trip down next week then:duh:
